Oxygenated blood is characterized by its high oxygen content, which allows it to efficiently transport oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues. It appears bright red due to the presence of oxyhemoglobin, a compound formed when oxygen binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells. This type of blood typically has a lower concentration of carbon dioxide compared to deoxygenated blood, as it releases carbon dioxide during the gas exchange process in the lungs. Additionally, oxygenated blood is found primarily in the arteries, particularly the pulmonary and systemic circulation.
